James "Jimmy" Hopkins (born 1991) was an American student who attended Bullworth Academy during the 2006-2007 school year as a freshman. Hopkins was expelled from multiple schools before this, and was targeted by the Bullies clique led by Russell Northrop. He allied himself with Gary Smith and Pete Kowalski, though Smith betrayed the two of them in the fall by leading Hopkins to the Hole, where he successfully defeated Northrop and allied with him.
Hopkins then fought the Preppies led by Derby Harrington, the Greasers led by Johnny Vincent, the Nerds led by Earnest Jones, and the Jocks led by Ted Thompson, beating them into submission. He was soon expelled after Harrington goaded Hopkins into graffiting the Bullworth Town Hall in the neighboring Bullworth, but was promptly reinstated alongside his new girlfriend, Zoe Taylor, after beating Smith during a school riot incited by him.
